Beautiful Door - Billy Bob Thornton

Maybe I’m crazy

Maybe I’m blind

Cause I can’t understand

The kind of mind

That kills for God

or money or the land

It just seems odd

to take that kind of stand

Some on the East side

Some on the West

Who think that somehow

their way is best

But there are some

there in the middle

Who’s lives have come

to mean so little

You can preach all you want to And make up forever more

I know you want to walk into

another world

But I don’t see no Beautiful Door

I can’t help myself

I like this place

And leavings not a thing

I want to face

But those who wanna go Knock yourselves out

Just don’t take those

who don’t care about

Your power dreams

and your golden gates

cause I hear their screams

as you deal their fates

You’ll never kill this world

But I am afraid

That you’ll take away

those you said God made

You can preach all you want to And make up forever more

I know you want to walk

into another world

But I don’t see no Beautiful Door

I know you want to walk

into another world

But I don’t see no Beautiful Door

You say you want to talk

About a better world

But you’ve closed that Beautiful Door
